Mattheo Riddle ⁴⁰

Jessica and Mattheo knew each other from a young age because their parents were friends.

Their friendship grew stronger when they were children. Mattheo defended Jessica from the boys who bullied her for being chubby, since Jessica had always been chubby.

When Jessica was seventeen, Mattheo asked her to be his girlfriend, but in secret; no one knew except them, of course. Mattheo had told her secretly, using the excuse that he was protecting her from being made fun of, and Jessica, in love, believed him.

Two years of secret courtship, Mattheo was the "perfect" boyfriend when they were alone together, but when someone saw them he acted as if he didn't know her, with the same excuse he used to protect her.

They were already nineteen years old and Mattheo was going to go away for two years to study abroad and when they were at the airport Mattheo promised Jessica that when he returned they would make their relationship public and Jessica... Naive... Believed him.

Two years passed, and Jessica underwent a radical transformation. She had lost a lot of weight and looked beautiful. She had been pretty before, but now she was much more so; her features stood out much more, and she wore clothes that accentuated her new body and curves.

The day Jessica found out Mattheo was coming back, she went to the airport, excited to see him, for him to see how she'd changed, and for them to be together. But what she saw... broke her heart.

Jessica saw Mattheo leave and her heart skipped a beat, but before she could approach, a girl ran up to him and hugged him, and Mattheo took her by the waist and kissed her on the lips.

Jessica froze, her chest tightened, and she couldn't even cry. Mattheo hadn't even seen her.
